We keep two stalls of the barn open to the dry lot during the winter so that Moonbeam and Donnie can access the barn to get our of the harsh winter weather. I feel better knowing that they each have a dry, comfortable place to lie down and rest....

Will Work for Snacks!
Dear Quaker Foods:
We are inquiring about the spokes-person
employment opportunity that you had recently advertised.
We are not Quaker, but one of us (Moonbeam) used to be Amish.....
The "Bigs" need a job....
something to help them earn their keep...
a little extra snack money would be nice.
"Will work for snacks!"
Given their obvious lack of skills, however,
jobs are hard to come by.
Hmmmm....how about advertising?
They would make the perfect spokes-horse,
(spokes-pony?)
for their favorite snack food.
They have recently admitted that they love Oatmeal Squares
even more than Frosted Mini Wheats!
And it's a good thing too, because Oatmeal Squares are
good for your heart...according to the package.
"It's right here on the front of the box", says Donnie.
So, if anyone is interested in hiring two slightly overweight,
but handsome and charming ponies.....
please email us here.
We would be happy to provide a video audition!
It's funny, each group of animals on the farm has its favorite treats.
You may have read older posts saying how the goats love Ritz crackers.
The chickens....well, they love just about everything...
except raw veggies (they prefer theirs cooked!)
